Booked by 4 families in Happy Valley, OR

Hello - My name is Beatriz Stewart, I have a major in Psychology with a focus on child development. My past responsibilities as a nanny have included driving to/from school, activities in and outside of the house, bathing and feeding. I am also available to cook and clean. I'm comfortable adjusting to any religious orientation, eating habits or teachings. And I'm very comfortable with dogs.

Amazing! We lucked out and found Beatriz last minute and a full two months later we couldn't be happier. She is professional, attentive, supportive of things we want to try as parents, and a great communicator. We trust her with our baby girl and can relax knowing she is in safe hands. Highly recommend.

Hi- I’m Caitlyn and I’m a Momma to three wonderful Children. Prior to having kiddos of my own I worked full time as a Nanny for three amazing toddlers. I have experience working as a Nanny for ten years and prior to that I worked in a daycare facility. I love working with kids and love to keep them entertained and active!

Caitlyn was great. The transition was east and the kids were peaceful in bed when we arrived home.

Hello! My name is Sofiya. I’m offering child care, senior care, pet sitting and household services. I love baby sitting and have been doing so since about 14 years of age. I have worked at an elementary school as a teachers assistant and baby sat at home. I love art and can always come up with something fun to do. I also have experience working with elder people. Some of my tasks included cleaning, running errands and cooking. I love animals and have a cat of my own so I’m happy to work with the furry friends as well.

Sofiya helped out with my kiddo and a colleagues boys while we were on a work trip to Portland. Our kids had an amazing time with her. She was super dependable, detailed oriented, responsible, and flexible! She spent two days taking the boys around to museums. I would highly recommend her to anyone and our kids are begging to go back to Portland and hang out with her!

Hi! I’ve spent 10+ years working with children in a variety of settings, including preschool classrooms, K-5th afterschool care settings, a behavioral + mental health facility for children, cared for infants as a nanny, and helped out at various camps over the years. I’m offering childcare, pet care, and light household help on a part-time basis. I’m looking for some extra hours and would love to help out families in need of flexible, reliable support.

Megan is great. She connected with my child immediately and they were both ready to play.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
